Yeah, same here.  Obviously, it'd be better to spend effort on getting
the bug fix committed than to spend effort on some cosmetic
workaround.

The fact that the failure is in the isolation tests not the core
regression tests reduces my level of concern somewhat about shipping
it this way.  I think that packagers typically run the core tests
not check-world during package verification, so they won't hit this.
